Looking good and under cover in Nashville last year:

This looks like a professional job. Was the asbestos removed? Anyone have more information?

Very similar to the NdeM 4-8-4s, like the 3028 here in Mexico, DF:

Compared to photos I took of this loco in November 2004, I see no indications of the asbestos having been removed. Looks like they just painted her.

Bob,

I think the 3028 is at New Hope, PA for an EXTENDED rebuild. Could it be 3038 in Mexico City?

Sorry, yes, the 3038 is on display in Mexico City. Typo...

The asbestos was removed in 1997.

I plan on seeing that NdeM engine run. I figure it's as close as I'm ever likely to get to seeing a Dixie run.
